Eze, a member of the APC Legacy Projects Media Committee maintained that no matter whatever Wike thinks he is today, he knows he cannot fit into Atiku’s Abubakar’s political portfolio.
He described as sad and unfortunate, the unstatesman and unruly behaviour of Wike, after former Vice President Atiku Abubakar had vehemently refused to pick him as his running mate before the 2023 general elections.
In a statement issued on Sunday, Eze stated that the recent statements credited to Wike, Bode George and some PDP governors, are suggestive of the fact that they are subtly working for Tinubu to ensure his re-election in 2027 not minding the suffering Nigerians are currently going through because of the inept governance of the country by President Tinubu.
He stated that he’s not surprised that Wike is yet to overcome the shock of his dismal performance at the PDP presidential primary as well as his outright rejection by Atiku.
According him, since Atiku demystified and deflated Wike’s overbloated political ego, the FCT minister has resorted to pouring invectives on Atiku, one of Africa’s greatest democrats.
“if Atiku had chosen Wike as his vice presidential candidate, the former Rivers State governor would have done everything both normal and criminal for Atiku to be elected president.
However, Eze revealed that what many failed to comprehend was that Atiku would not have been alive to serve out his term knowing the nature of the deadly, devious and politics of bitterness that Wike is synonymous with.
“With such an uncultured fellow as the vice president of Nigeria, what would have been the image of Nigeria.
“For Atiku to have listened to me and many other patriotic Nigerians in rejecting Wike as his vice president, he has done a great relief both to his life and that of Nigerians” Eze added.
In view of the foregoing, the APC chieftain urged Nigerians not to take any statement from Wike as to why he was rejected by Atiku, too serious, stressing that such self -serving statements are not borne out of frustration, meaningless and have no effect on whatever may be the future political plans of Atiku Abubakar.
Eze commended Atiku for letting Wike to know that he is a traitor working to undermine the PDP, adding that Wike is bereft of moral authority to discuss integrity.
Reacting on the statement by Chief Bode George, that PDP will be finally buried should Atiku pick the PDP presidential slot, Chief Eze urged Nigerians to ignore the man, whom he said speaks from both sides of the mouth.
“As much as Nigerians are aware of the dirty type of politics that Bode George plays even at his age, he should tell Nigerians apart from Atiku, who else in PDP has a nationwide support base to wrestle power from a well coordinated figure like Tinubu.
“It is unfortunate that Bode George who ensured that PDP and Labour Party failed in Lagos and refused to support PDP during the 2023 general elections is out to replicate same dastardly role come 2027, to ensure that the woes facing Nigeria under a very confused administration are multiplied, but God will not allow him and his cohorts to succeed this time around,” Eze stated.
Talking about the PDP governors, Eze hinted that their game plan is well known to ensure that either PDP doesn’t present a presidential candidate come 2027 and if they decide to field anybody, they will ensure that such a candidate can’t even win one local government area in the country.
